Robbie

He's like his daddy with sports. He literally will play all day. All the neighborhood kids come to play (and they're all like 12!) and he'll play until it's dark. He loves to watch sports, too. And during his games, he gets so competitive, it's hilarious! After each goal, he'll ask the ref the score, just to make sure he has the same tally as Robbie. But the best part is his ticked-off, don't mess with me face. Most kids smile after they score--not Robbie! He purses his lips, nostrils flared, and glares forward. It's so funny! 35 goals this season (in 8 games). He's amazing!

Everyday he asks for us to cut his hair; everyday we say no. How can we chop this beauty off?

He got straight As his first quarter (it's actually a number system, but it equals As). He is already where he needs to be for the end of the year in math and reading. He just needs to work on his handwriting; he makes beautiful letters, but the mechanics (top to bottom each time) and not using capitals is something he can work on. He's so wonderful and good. We love him.
